To centralize summer assignments the only complex that will be open for Summer 2019 will be Farris Hall. If that space is exceeded College View Apartments building 6 will be used for overflow.

UMHB does not offer storage units for the summer. All items will need to be moved to your new assignment or stored off campus to allow university employees full access to unoccupied spaces.

If you are NOT planning on staying in the apartments in the summer, you will HAVE to remove all of your belongings and turn in your key when you check out on May 10. You may not leave personal belongings with a roommate who is staying for the summer.

• Each of the summer sessions are billed separately. Your housing assignment can only be occupied (by you or your belongings) if the housing costs for the session are paid.
• Summer Incentive Program Exception: The summer incentive program will allow those residents who enroll in and complete a total of 6 or more hours during the summer to live in summer housing rent free. The housing for a resident participating in this program is considered “paid” for all three sessions if the resident has enrolled in and completed 6 hours or more during the summer. The resident will be able to move into their summer housing assignment at the beginning of the May term and remain there through the end of Summer II if that is what they choose to do. If the resident is going to be gone for any significant length of time during the summer, he/she will be required to communicate with the RD of that facility. (ex. resident moves belongings in at beginning of mini-mester, leaves to go on vacation or go home and doesn’t return until beginning of Summer I or Summer II). Each resident has completed a Storage Agreement Form, the university will not be responsible for belongings left in a residential space.
• Residents cannot store furniture and other personal belongings for a roommate. The only exceptions made to this rule are for items shared by roommates and used by both when the roommate is staying for the summer. Examples would be a TV or shared furniture in the main living area or kitchen items that are shared. If items are left by a resident because they have a shared use, the resident leaving the items will be expected to sign a Storage Agreement Form that acknowledges that they are leaving the items for the use of their roommate and that the university is not responsible for those items. If the roommate is required to move during the summer for any reason, he/she will be responsible for the care and removal of those shared items.

• Please remember that the current occupants of your summer assignment have until 2 pm on May 10 before they have to be out of the apartment. You will not be allowed to begin moving your belongings into the summer assignment until check-in Sunday, May 10, from 3 to 5 pm.
• Please note that if you are moving into an apartment on this date, the UMHB Housekeeping staff will NOT have had time to bring the apartment up to “move-in” status.
• There will be specific check in and check out procedures before each session and after each session. For students who are staying in the same apartment for multiple sessions, these procedures will be paperwork only, and will not require a physical move. All check in and check out processes will take place in the Commons Room 101 for Farris Hall and the Office at College View.
• Residents who are currently living in designated summer housing must go through the checkout process with their RA at the end of the spring semester, even if they intend to live in the same apartment for the summer.
• If the resident has been assigned another apartment in the complex for the summer session(s), they must move to the new assignment on May 10. They must check out of their spring assignment May 10 from 12 pm to 2 pm and then check in to the summer assignment from 3 to 5 pm.
• Residents are responsible for their housing. If a resident requests housing for multiple terms they will be billed for those sessions. A student must formally checkout to end the summer housing contract or cancel future housing. Housing is billed in block terms and will not be pro-rated for partial occupancy. Storing items in an apartment will be considered rented or occupied by the resident even if they are not present.
• All residents of the apartments will be expected to go through the fall check-in process.

Be sure to read the Summer Application carefully and make sure you are being billed correctly. If there is an error in on your bill for the summer, you will need to contact the Residence Life Office within 30 days after receiving the bill in order to ensure that a correction can be made. The Bursars office will charge your account for housing at the beginning of each session you are residing on campus. Once you have completed 6 hours those charges will be removed from the account. If circumstances change and you decide not to take classes, the balance of charges are your responsibility.

• The time period between the end of Summer II and the official opening of housing for the fall is called the Interim. Only those residents who have an apartment or campus house assignment for the fall of 2020 will be allowed to sign up for the Interim.
• At the end of Summer II, any occupant intending to reside in campus housing for the interim will need to move to their fall 2020 apartment or campus house assignment. If their assignment is in one of the residence halls, other arrangements must be made, interim housing will not be available. If the resident is not planning to stay during the interim, they must check out of the complex by the appropriate date, remove their belongings and return the key.

UMHB housing is primarily meant for undergraduate students and first priority for assignment is given to the traditional undergraduate. Graduate students required to be in person on campus to complete course work during an intensive time frame are eligible to apply for summer housing and will be assigned if space is available. Students must contact the Residence Life Office to have their identity added to housing portal before they will be allowed to apply.
